What the heck is Dorothy Lynch dressing?

While perusing the web in search of recipes for Maid Rites (or taverns, or loose meats, or whatever it is you wish to call it), I came across this reply in the comment section of the "Iowa Girl Eats" food blog, "You know you’re from Nebraska when you throw a fit if a restaurant doesn’t offer Dorothy Lynch dressing. ..." I've never heard of this, so what in the world is Dorothy Lynch dressing? I presume this is some kind of salad dressing. If you know, could you please describe the taste and texture? Better yet, can you tell us how it is made? Is it known only in Nebraska, or is this a Midwestern thing? Thanks to all who can provide answers!

They sell it here in the San Antonio area at H.E.B. and maybe Walmart. I'll have to try it sometime.They also sell here Durkee's Salad Dresssing as well .Durkee's has been around since at least the 1890s,,,,,1900s.

It's been in the stores around here forever. I've never tried it either, but after these comments I'm getting some next trip.

easy, I moved to La Crosse area 30 years ago, never knew what it was till I met my wife. She used it all the time, I liked it. She talked me into using it when I couldn't find my favorite dressing "Scoops Delight" in La Crosse..... Scoops Delight Country Style Dressing was the pride of Prairie Farm, WI, someone else purchased the recipe now they seem to have dropped off the map.
